I see people gathering. I see some of them, in masks, (scroll down deep for all my current favorite masks) trying their best to allow kids and adults alike a little physically distanced-outdoor-safe time with friends and family, for the sake of love and sanity. I see them on patios and porches, in parks and backyards. And I see...
This is a post for all the running-out-the-door, tugging-on-sneaks, "Do you have your backpack?"-"Where are the keys?"-"Put on a jacket!" moms. Now that I'm doing the same thing every morning (admittedly sans children), having a cup of heaven to cuddle on the bus ride into the city is a treasure. What is not a treasure, is hitting one of...
If you've been around since last year, you may have seen my first post about this fabulous calendar for all yearly planning. Good news! The 2020 version has now arrived! You can snag that for all your planning goodness. If you don't know what I'm talking about, have no fear -- I'm here for another little overview of what...

Have you ever noticed Shana’s periodic comments about her friend who talks a little too much for social comfort about her love of a certain vacuum? Yep…that’s me. Leading the world in thrilling conversations about comfortable shoes and vacuums. I really am truly obsessed with my Dyson vacuum, so when Dyson reached out to TME...
I'm gearing up to host some holiday parties at our house over the course of the next month. I always make sure my cocktail game is on-point for the adults, but as my kids get older, I'm trying to find more ways to include them in the festivities. One request I've been getting from my daughter since the cold...
I've been pretty transparent about my health these past couple of years, at least on my personal Instagram and podcast. It has been a wild ride. That's the only way I can describe it, honestly. Thankfully, I have been on the road to recovery, and recently HUM Nutrition has been pushing me along faster to a better place. However,...
Pax's lunchbag is decorated with planets and rockets; Raines', per usual, is plain black. We have another old moldy one in a drawer...somewhere...but to invoke Marie Kondo: IT BRINGS NO JOY.
And I want some joy with that Pinterest-worthy food bowl I intend to make for lunch...someday. #snort Or at the very least, a lunchbox that doesn't immediately make my...
Funny how, even as a someone who spends most of my work hours in (or very near) the kitchen, I can still barely manage to get a family meal plan together with time to spare. Fortunately, I do have a few things that help meals and snacks come to fruition with a little more ease, so I’m not totally...
Coffee, my friend. That beautiful moment that slows each day down...when I have that gorgeous hot cup of deliciousness. I'm a person who hates routine and a planned schedule, but that morning cup, each morning, is my favorite. And then my second favorite is the couple of times a week I get a beautiful latte when I'm out and...
In 2018 we wrote about our Mediterranean Diet, otherwise known around here as "How we eat, Most of the time." The Mediterranean Diet just trumped, in 2019, what had previously held the number one spot for the prior eight years, and bumped it, the DASH Diet, down to the number two spot according to US News and World Report....
